The former Minister of the FCT said the party has abandoned all the principles of the founding fathers, which formed the bedrock of the party to take over the country few years ago.

Recall that he lost his nomination as a minister by President Tinubu after the Nigerian Senate failed to confirm him. Sources close to him insist that he’s very angry with the party and the president for failing to ensure that his nomination sailed through in the National Assembly.

Speaking during a conference in Abuja, the nation’s capital El Rufai said the ethos of democracy have been lost by the ruling party, urging the opposition in the country to unite to save the country.

He described APC as a party of ‘one man’ show,  lacking in internal democracy and active party structures, adding that the reason is because the ruling party is being managed by ‘illiterates’.

He lamented the deteriorating state of the nation’s democracy, saying the opposition that is supposed to save the situation is currently in disarray, and in a state of ‘emergency’ that needs rescue. .

He said he “no longer recognize the APC. No party organ has met in two years—no caucus, no NEC, nothing. You don’t even know if it is a one-man show; it’s a zero-man show..

“You cannot afford to have illiterates, semi-illiterates, and cunning people as your leaders. This is why we end up with the poor leadership we have today.

“The problems that led to the creation of the APC remain unresolved, but I no longer believe the APC is interested in addressing them. The distance between me and the party is widening,” he said.
